Videos on social media appear to show some protesters asking leader Xi Jinping to resign.

Protests against Covid restrictions in China appear to have intensified following a fire which killed 10 people in an apartment block in Urumqi.

Many people have blamed their deaths on the lockdown of residential buildings - something Chinese authorities have denied was the cause. Though the situation in the area had calmed by Sunday morning, the BBC saw a heightened police presence in the area of the protest, with several dozen police officers, private security guards and plain-clothed police officers on the streets.

The dictator used covid controls as an excuse to gradually enslave and domesticate people's human rights. A tragic fire not only killed young and innocent children, but also burned people's endurance and seeing this hypocrisy and hideous face of CCP behind their brutal governance

Very quick to show anti-lockdown protests if happen in China, but never once showed the massive antilockdown protests over the last three years in EU. defundthebbc Hypocrites propagandafactory noamnestyforcovidtyrrany

That's great but we are dealing with Balenciaga for promoting child porn in America for a holiday campaign. They get to apologize but Kanye lost a billion in 1 day for making a comment about Jews because he's not white.

You report on anti lockdown protests in China - but when they happened numerous times in the UK and right outside your windows in London - you had a TOTAL news blackout. Please explain your actions.

They are so hungry for freedom.

Chinese, don't make Xi Jinping like Gaddafi! Arrest him and send him to the International Criminal Court for 'Genocide' and 'Crimes Against Humanity' and sentence him to life in prison! And don't let him end up like Gaddafi!

Everyone in China is currently getting the government they deserve

There watching a world cup where few people are wearing masks

It’s a long time in China for someone dares to demonstrate like this: Down Xi Jingping, Down CCP. Not even June 4th, 1989 at Tiananmen Square. Xi Jingping won’t treat it lightly. I foresee it is a single spark that may start a prairie fire, or I hope, I wish.
